Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well donor cellular therapy after cytarabine works in treating patients with intermediate-risk acute myeloid leukemia with a decrease in or disappearance of signs and symptoms of cancer. Donor cellular therapy is a short-term transfusion of cells from a family member who is incompletely matched. The use of these partially matched white blood cells may help improve response to standard chemotherapy (cytarabine) and reduce some of the risks of infection, without a permanent transplant. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving donor cellular therapy after cytarabine may kill more cancer cells.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ruxolitinib phosphate when given together with tacrolimus and sirolimus in preventing acute graft-versus-host disease during reduced intensity donor hematopoietic cell transplant in patients with myelofibrosis. Sometimes transplanted cells from a donor can attack the normal tissue of the transplant patient called graft-versus-host disease. Ruxolitinib phosphate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It may also reduce graft-versus-host disease by reducing inflammation and immune modulation. Giving ruxolitinib phosphate together with tacrolimus and sirolimus after transplant may prevent graft-versus-host disease.
This is a Phase I clinical trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the polo-like kinase-1 inhibitor volasertib which can be safely combined with idarubicin plus cytarabine induction chemotherapy for previously untreated patients with acute myeloid leukemia. (AML).
Primary Objective: Measure the proportion of patients who develop binding and neutralizing antibodies in the blood after treatment with sargramostim following induction/reinduction chemotherapy. Secondary Objectives: - Assess the time after treatment at which the antibodies develop and the level of antibodies is measured after the first dose. - Measure the levels of immunoglobulin protein. - Assess the impact of any immune response on safety and the duration of low white blood cell count.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of 6,8-bis(benzylthio)octanoic acid (CPI-613) when given together with cytarabine and daunorubicin hydrochloride and to see how well it works in treating older patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. CPI-613 may kill tumor cells by turning off mitochondria (small structures in the cancer cells that are found in the cytoplasm [fluid that surrounds the cell nucleus]). Mitochondria are used by cancer cells to produce energy and are the building blocks needed to make more tumor cells. By shutting off mitochondria, CPI-613 may deprive the cancer cells of energy and other supplies that they need to survive and grow. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and daunorubicin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving CPI-613 together with cytarabine and daunorubicin hydrochloride may kill more cancer cells.
This study is an extension study (prospective observational study) of 'IDEAL' study (A Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Imatinib (Glinib) 600mg/day depending on Early Molecular Response in Newly Diagnosed Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in Chronic Phase, NCT02204722) to evaluate the duration of treatment response, disease progression, and survival status up to 5 years after the inclusion.
This study is designed in its first part (phase Ib) to determine the recommended dose of the OTX015 + Vidaza (azacitidine) combination in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia patients not candidate for standard intensive induction therapy. It will be followed by a randomized phase II part to assess the efficacy of the combination using 2 arms : Vidaza (azacitidine) alone vs. OTX015 in combination with Vidaza (azacitidine).
The purpose of this study is to determine safety, tolerability, dose limiting toxicities (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ZEN003365 in patients with relapsed/refractory lymphoproliferative malignancies (LPM) or relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
The main purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of VS-4718 in two types of leukemia patients and to find the right dose of VS-4718 for future clinical trials. Other purposes of this study include: - Testing for study drug VS-4718 levels in blood over time and what happens to the study drug in patients. - To find out if there are certain biomarkers in leukemia patients that predict if and how 4718 study drug may or may not work.
Despite improvements in outcomes after Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), the risk of relapse remains high and is the most common cause of mortality after HCT. Moreover, treatment options for relapse after HCT are limited. Strategies to reduce relapse with maintenance therapy in patients who are at high risk are needed to improve survival. 5-aza is a hypomethylating agent that has shown immune modulating properties that may enhance the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect, including upregulation of tumor-associated antigen and costimulatory molecule expression. Moreover, 5-aza has properties that suggest protection against graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) as well. Preliminary data shows that it is well tolerated and effective in clinical use for the treatment of AML or MDS relapse after HCT, as well as for maintenance therapy. This study will evaluate the use of 5-aza for maintenance after HCT in patients with AML or MDS with risk factors that are associated with a high risk for relapse.
